PU$$Y NOIR returns to SIREN for the BRITNEY BASH

 MAJRmusic's flagship event, SIREN, is pleased to bring back its resident KWEEN, Ms. PU$$Y NOIR this evening for SIREN: The BRITNEY Bash 2.0.

What can we say about Pu$$y?  Well, she isn't your typical pussy.  She loves to get wet, scratches before she hisses and tears down the curtains out of principle - not fun.  

She's superb.  Easily our favorite performer in the city and BRINGS IT every time she's there.  She has been with SIREN since the beginning - WAY BACK in June 2010 - and is a delight with which to work.  She is daring and epitomizes fierce in all she does.  In the first BRITNEY BASH (March 2011) she put on a tittie gun and did "Toy Soldier" ... a jaw-dropping performance.  It will be difficult to top such a performance, but if anyone can do so, it's the brilliant Pu$$y.

Don't like Pu$$y yet?  Well, get on it... I know you'll lap it up:

SIREN guest dj DELLA VOLLA serves up some Spears-ness

To say that Wesley Della Volla is a friend to good music is an understatement.  He's more a liaison to all things sonorous.  He's also a brilliant DJ I've seen develop over the years and I'm really happy to be associated with him, as a whole.  Definitely check out his KickKickSnare - an amazing music blog/page that has helped expose some of the best of modern pop.  

Also, his overweight cats are fabulous. 

DELLA VOLLA took the time to give us his top 10 BRITNEY tracks:

1. Toxic

2. Overprotected

3. Stronger

4. Kill The Lights

5. Born To Make You Happy

6. I Wanna Go

7. Boys

8. Radar

9. Piece Of Me

10. Work Bitch

fresh: "Think of You (RAC v. MAJR edit)" - MS MR

I am in love with this track and have been for most of the summer.  MS MR, in case you don't know, is the band of NEON GOLD RECORDS co-founder Lizzy Plapinger.  Neon Gold is responsible for some of the best acts of the last 5 years, including: 

Passion Pit

Marina & the Diamonds

The Knocks

CHVRCHES

St. Lucia

Foxes

Icona Pop

Monarchy

The Sound of Arrows

The Naked and Famous

and let's not forget the played-ad-nauseam Gotye.  

When RAC remixed this track, I knew it would be superb... and I was right.  Well done, boys. 

So, I took the track, cut it up, sped it up and manipulated some of the levels to give it a little dancefloor punch.  Enjoy (hopefully): 

a little trip down memory lane

An old mix I made that basically still is everything I love about music.  (Feb 2011)

This still rocks my world... So many memories: 

thoughts: new VV Brown = WTF? or FTW!

Here's a new video that seems to be in line with Ms. VV Brown's recent departure in sound... What do you think?

Honestly, for me, I'm not a huge fan... but that just may be the shock of such a paradigm shift in sound.

Monsieur Adi just made your weekend (remixes of Beyoncé and Mikky Ekko)

Thanks to KICKKICKSNARE (especially the gloriously sexy Wesley) for the heads-up on the Beyoncé remix.  Good stuff.  Hopefully her album doesn't suck as much as her publicist.

As far as Mikky Ekko - what a difference the remix made.  That song is absolute asscrack without the sonic assistance of Monsieur Adi.  

Well done.

new video: "Think of You" - MS MR

The newest single/video from MS MR, from the LP Secondhand Rapture.  Kind of in love with this right now: 

M.I.A. = Still Amazing [new video!]

M.I.A. returns - and the world rejoices...  

Mathangi Arulpragasam is still a phenomenal balance of glamorous and raw.  I dig the track and don't hate the video.  It is, above all, comforting to see her back making music and invading dance floors instead of sitting back in her studio and producing other artists (but we do thank her for doing so with Rye Rye) at her record company (N.E.E.T. Recordings).

PS: the reference to Janis Joplin in the breakdown of this track makes my heart smile

Handshake (Amtrac remix) - Two Door Cinema Club

Things I Love

2.) Well done ambient chill-pop

So, Britney returns with a song that isn't absolutely horrible, but it felt disjointed and I was bored and wanted a project... so ta dah!

This song sounds extremely similar to SEAL IT WITH A KISS, to me at least.  What do you think?
